I would like a few more small surface swimmers for some upper river and lake fishing. Maybe some small top water also. Would love to see some trout paterns. Btw.... still loving those slope heads and darters. Thanks and be well Apologies for the delayed response, been bouncing in and out of town for work a lot lately. Yes on the smaller stuff. I have a few ideas of plugs I've had success with here that i think would be of interest. A 1 oz swimmer that I originally designed for Hybrid fishing in KY a number of years ago has found use for stripers when small bait is around and has also been good for largemouth. Also some smaller pencils. Worked up a thru wire version of one I had thrown for smallies for years. Had some success on stripers when the small bait was in. Also have a surface plug that has done well on larger smallies in a local river that I think some of you might find of interest. Have managed to get a batch of the 2 oz pencils done (5 inch sinkers). Also the floating version of the same pencil. If my out of town work gets delayed this week due to weather, I'll get them up later this week. If not, should be able to get them up here next week.

YakDawg Posted January 28, 2019 Report Share Posted January 28, 2019 Interested in the 1oz swimmer for sure. Do you swap out the hooks when using it for largemouth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll post a photo later of the colors I did. Have bunker in both. 1 hour ago, Bob S. said: Any idea when u may be making your gliders....

Really depends on whether I'm specifically targeting lm. Several places I fish have lm, smallies, and stripers. If I know I'm going to throw for stripers too I'll keep the 4x vmc. Otherwise I'll swap out for lighter hooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeHangover Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 Little beachmasters or spin atoms for lighter tackle around an ounce would be cool. I've been scouring the internet and they're pretty hard to find in the colors I like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have done 3/8 and 1/2 oz ones for freshwater (smallies love them!), and a 3/4 oz saltwater version. Will have to break out that template again and knock some more out.
